Wsu nursing interview

[ppatel786]

Hello,

I just received a Interview letter for BSN program at WSU Spokane. I am bit of nervous regarding the interview as I never gave one interview before. Could you please tell

(1) what type of questions they ask so i can prepare for it?

(2) Do you still remember the type of questions you were asked? it would be really helpful if you can share them with me?

(3) total how many questions i will be asked?

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Congrats on the interview!!!!

Expect things like,

"What made you want to go into nursing"

Tell me about something that happened in your life that you wish you had gone better, and why.

Tell me about a mistake you made in your life, and what you did about it

Tell me about a time you were really upset about something. How did you react?

And probably a lot of ethical questions... Your best friend did something illegal, what would you do about it?

That sort of thing. They are not looking to test your nursing knowlege, but are looking to see what kind of a nurse you would be. Nursing has been rated the most respected profession, the most trusted profession for oodles of years... are you going to be an ethical, respectable nurse? That's what they want to know. :-) Smile, be professional, be honest, and be yourself. And best luck!!!

I just had my interview on October 29th, they asked me the basic questions but also what being an advocate means to me and how culture relates to nursing. Those questions really threw me off because I really don't know that kind of stuff. Everyone will get different questions, you draw them from a basket with different envelopes.
